Upon hearing Zhou Chuan's words, Lin Cheng couldn't help but be stunned. He had never thought that such a storm would arise in just three days.
At the same time, he also didn't expect that the scene of his intense battle with Wu Ganben and the others would be carved by someone and spread to the outside world.
"Hah!"
Lin Cheng shook his head and laughed, "So many experts are paying attention to me, a newcomer who just entered the inner sect. I'm really flattered!"
Zhou Chuan said guiltily, "Lin Cheng, it is all my fault..."
"What did Elder Brother Zhou say? I did not mean to blame you!" Before he could finish, Lin Cheng interrupted him. He smiled and said, "Even if you didn't tell others about it, since someone has already engraved the scene at that time... How can you hide it? Besides, you were the one protecting me, how can I blame you? "
" You don't blame me? " Zhou Chuan asked.
"It's a fact that I defeated Wu Ganben. I never wanted to hide it from you. What's the big deal if it's spread? " Lin Cheng smiled and said, "Besides, even if we want to hide it, I'm afraid Wu Ganben will not let it go. I'm afraid there will be more waves in the future. This is really insignificant! "
Seeing that Zhou Chuan still wanted to say something, Lin Cheng smiled again and said, "Besides, even if Wu Ganben chose to hide this matter for the sake of his reputation, would those people with ill intentions give up on the idea of coveting the rare treasure?
Elder Brother Zhou, I have to thank you for what you have done. This can at least make some people sober up, and let those with mediocre strength and greed know. If you want to covet my Heavenly Treasure, you need to have enough strength to support it! If they want my Heavenly Treasure without sufficient strength, they must be prepared to pay the price! "
Although Lin Cheng was shocked by this and had never thought that there would be such a disturbance, he had no intention of blaming Zhou Chuan.
The so-called reprimanding him for his brutality and punishing him was just an excuse.
What those people really wanted was his rare treasure!
This was the source of all the trouble!
This was only an excuse for those people to say it out loud, so that they could jump out in a dignified manner. They were self-righteous enough to criticize him and find a reason to attack him next. That was all!
Even if Zhou Chuan hadn't done anything, those people would have jumped out sooner or later. Because he had a rare treasure in his possession, those who truly wanted a rare treasure... It was a high and mighty core disciple, and in everyone's eyes, he was a peak expert who could only be slaughtered by his opponent!
The ones who had jumped out were all Tong Chenen's Follower, but that was only because he was the one who had severely injured Wu Ganben. As for this man, he was Tong Chenen's Follower. Lin Cheng believed that. If he had defeated the other core disciples' Follower, there would also be people who would jump out and criticize him. And then attack him!
In order to protect him, Zhou Chuan refuted other people's taunts and slanders towards him, and even offended the core disciples. Lin Cheng had no time to thank him, so how could he not know what was good for him and blame him?
"Brother..."
Zhou Chuan opened his mouth and finally said, "You are really generous!"
He naturally understood that what Lin Cheng said made sense, but in fact, if he did not rashly spread the news of Lin Cheng defeating Wu Ganben and the others, those experts would not have jumped out so quickly.
Because Tong Chenen wasn't the only one who wanted the rare treasure, and that was also the reason. Instead, it caused them to be wary of each other, and none of them would make the first move. This was also the reason why no true expert had come out during this period of time.
Therefore, at most, Wu Ganben, who thought that his strength could suppress Lin Cheng, would jump up and down, and Lin Cheng would have more time to improve his strength.
However, the current situation had changed. Once these experts came out, the pressure Lin Cheng would face would instantly become greater. He didn't have enough time to improve his strength.
However, Lin Cheng didn't complain about him at all. This made Zhou Chuan heave a sigh of relief, and at the same time, he couldn't help but sigh with emotion. Lin Cheng was truly majestic.
He suddenly thought that perhaps it was because of Lin Cheng's generous character that the Cultivation Level could improve so quickly.
The cultivator, although its talent was extremely important, its heart was also equally important.
"Lin Cheng, what do you plan to do next?" Zhou Chuan couldn't help but ask.
"How do we deal with it?"
Lin Cheng pondered for a moment and shook his head. "Don't worry about him. Let nature take its course!"
Zhou Chuan was stunned. "Ignore it?"
"Since the sect did not have any reaction to this, and the law enforcement team of the Punishment Hall did not come to find me, it means that I did not violate the rules. In that case, why should I care about the opinions of others?"
Lin Cheng sneered and said, "If I have violated the sect rules, the Punishment Hall will naturally punish me. If those people can convict me with just a few words, then what is the use of the sect setting up the Punishment Hall?"
Zhou Chuan was stunned, and then his eyes lit up. "That's right! These people said they would punish you, but in fact, it was just an excuse for their shameless actions!"
But then he couldn't help frowning and said, "But even if the sect won't punish you, we can't let our guard down. These people are all experts, and it's said that one of them is even an Incarnation Stage expert. If these mighty warriors attack you... "
Lin Cheng said, "This is also within my expectation. I can only take one step at a time."
Zhou Chuan said in a dull tone, "These experts are not easy to deal with. Their Cultivation Level is much higher than ours. Their combat strength can't be underestimated."
Although Lin Cheng had defeated Wu Ganben and the others, he had displayed an extremely powerful combat strength. He had shocked many people, but when faced with those Fifth and Sixth Level Core Sea Stage warriors... Even a peak Core Sea Stage warrior, Lin Cheng wanted to defeat his opponent so easily. However, it wasn't that realistic anymore.
The gap of a few small realms was like a chasm that was difficult to overcome!
Not to mention that the expert who was said to have broken through to the Incarnation Stage had also stepped forward. It was impossible for the current Lin Cheng to defeat him.
"No matter who it is, they will have to pay a price if they want to take away the treasure from me!"
Lin Cheng's expression was calm, and his eyes were firm. "Even if they are Incarnation Stage experts, there is nothing to be afraid of!"
Although Incarnation Stage warriors were powerful and not someone he could fight against, if the opponent wanted to pinch him, Lin Cheng would not be at the mercy of the enemy, and he would never surrender to his fate!
If these people really forced him into a corner, he would rather give the treasure to an elder than give it to any one of them!
"Someone is coming!"
Right at this moment, Lin Cheng suddenly frowned. He heard a few soft footsteps. He immediately whispered to Zhou Chuan and both of them became alert.
"Dong Dong Dong!"
Not long after, someone knocked on the courtyard door. "Is Junior Brother Lin Cheng here?"
Zhou Chuan looked at Lin Cheng in surprise. From the time Lin Cheng had noticed someone knocking on the door to the time it took to knock on the door, it had taken him dozens of breaths of time. For a cultivator, it was a long way to go!
This also meant that Lin Cheng was able to cover such a large area without deliberately releasing the spiritual sense. How powerful was Lin Cheng's spiritual sense?
Zhou Chuan immediately recovered from his shock and stopped Lin Cheng from opening the door. He said in a low voice, "I'll go!"
If the opponent wanted to sneak attack him, he might be injured, but he could give Lin Cheng enough time to react.
"Junior brother, may I ask if junior brother Lin Cheng is here?" Zhou Chuan opened the courtyard door and saw a young male cultivator standing outside the door. He asked with a smile.
"Senior brother, I am Lin Cheng. May I know why senior brother is here?" Lin Cheng walked over, cupped his fists and asked. However, just as his voice faded, Lin Cheng suddenly recognized this man. He had gone to the Hall of Magic to receive teachings from the sect. This man was following beside Qu Yuanlu.
"Junior Brother Lin, my name is Yu Zhichen. I am here on the request of senior disciple Qu Yuanlu, and I am here to pay a visit to Junior Brother Lin!" The man said with a smile.
"Greetings, Senior Brother Yu!"
Lin Cheng and Zhou Chuan both cupped their fists and greeted him. A trace of surprise flashed across their eyes. Qu Yuanlu had asked them to pay him a visit?
This was a little strange!
Apart from being taught by Qu Yuanlu once in the Hall of Magic, they had no other interactions with each other. Why would Qu Yuanlu pay him a visit?
Moreover, even if he wanted to visit, why didn't Qu Yuanlu come personally? Instead, why did he ask Yu Zhichen to come?
"Junior brothers, there's no need to be polite. I came uninvited this time, and I might have disturbed you. Please forgive me!"2
Yu Zhichen said with a smile, and his gaze fell on the two men's faces. As if he had seen through their thoughts, he said, "Junior brothers, you don't have to be surprised. I have no other intentions in coming here. I only heard that Junior Brother Lin had some conflicts with some of the senior brothers in the sect, so I came here to ask about it."
Lin Cheng and Zhou Chuan's eyes met, and they saw the doubt in each other's eyes.
Yu Zhichen's explanation did not make the two of them feel relieved. Instead, it made them even more confused. Why would Qu Yuanlu ask about the conflict between them and others?
"Senior Brother Qu is from the Punishment Hall?" Zhou Chuan asked curiously.
Yu Zhichen was startled for a moment, then he shook his head and said with a smile, "Of course not. Senior Brother Qu doesn't belong to any of the palaces in the Six Halls. Don't misunderstand, Senior Brother Qu doesn't have any intention of blaming or blaming Junior Brother Lin. It's just out of respect for Junior Brother Lin, as well as protecting the relationship between the two of them. That's why he wants to ask about this matter. "
Ask about this matter?
When Lin Cheng heard this, he couldn't help but have a thought. He seemed to have understood something. He asked," Senior Brother Yu, do you mean that Senior Brother Qu is going to help me solve the problem that I am currently facing? "
Yu Zhichen nodded and said with a smile, "Yes! If Junior Brother Lin agrees, Senior Brother Qu is willing to resolve the misunderstanding and conflict between the two of you."
Hearing this, Zhou Chuan could not help but be delighted. "Really? Senior Brother Qu is willing to come forward?"
